Doors - sometimes a/c reputations aren't in alignment with the actual performance


Max landing weight, S.L., runway length required(nearest 100') -


757-200W 4700'
767-300W 5000'
727-200 5200'
777-200 5200'
777-300 5700'




I doubt many people would expect the 767-300 to outperform, and the 777-200 to match, the 727's landing performance.


The 1011 was probably similar to the 727 as the difference between the best and worst performer is within 500' of the 727's performance.
